Is it a joke?

> The First Theory of Creation:

>
>
> 14 billion years ago there was nothing
>
> no stars no galaxies no planets or people.
>
> Then suddenly without warning everything exploded into existence:
>
> the universe was born.
>
>
>
> The big bang, the most violent explosion there has ever been, brought
> everything into existence.
>
> This early universe was hot
> so hot it contained only raging energy.
> After only one second some energy was transformed into the seeds of matter.
> And the universe filled with a dense fog.
> 400, 000 years passed as the  universe grew
> and eventually the fog settled to form atoms.
> There were no stars to shine just vast clouds of gas.
> After a billion years one cloud became so dense
> it burst into life and the first star was born.
> Stars grouped into galaxies and finally the night sky looked as it does
> today.

>
> The Second Theory of Creation:
>
> The universe begins with a bang.
>
> A mass of seething energy that expands from a single point.
>
> It keeps expanding for a quadrillionth of a s second when everything grinds
> to a halt.
>
> Then in an instant it undergoes a massive expansion
>
> that leaves everything perfectly smooth and uniform.
>
> But at some point expansion or inflation stops before it blows the universe
> apart.
>
>
>
> The Third Theory of Creation:
>
> Creation begins with a bang.
>
> In a fraction of a second inflation expands the univers a quadrillion,
> quadrillion times.
>
> As it cools the building blocks of matter are formed.
>
> Then gravity begins to take effect.
>
>
>
> The Fourth Theory of Creation:
>
>
> Creation starts with a bang.
>
> Inflation takes over. And everything expands.
>
> After one billion years the first star is born.
>
> Then dark matter kicks in.
>
> It creates the gravity which makes galaxies form.
>
> The universe continues to expand.
>
> As the epochs pass the expansion slows.
>
> Soon the universe will come to a stop.
>
>
>
> The Fifth Theory of Creation:
>
>
>
> The universe starts with a bang.
>
> Then it suddenly inflates.
>
> Dark matter forms and helps galaxies emerge
>
> and the universe's expansion slows.
>
> Finally dark energy takes over stretching the universe more and more.
>
> Expanding and accelerating.
>
>
>
> The Sixth Theory of Creation:
>
>
>
> The universe follows infinite, self-sustaining cycles.
>
> An  <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternity> eternal series of oscillations.
>
> Each beginning with a big bang and ending with a big crunch.
>
> The universe expands for a period of time
>
> before the gravitational attraction of matter
>
> causes it to collapse back in and undergo a bounce.
